Participants are needed for a jumping exercise research study being conducted in by the Biomedical Engineering Department.
This study investigates any changes in muscle, balance, and other health measures due to hopping exercises in adults with and without Cerebral Palsy (CP). The experiment will compare the participant’s functional capabilities, muscle recruitment patterns, neurological patterns, and balance control, before and after the exercise.
We are seeking participants who have Cerebral Palsy, greater than 18 years old, and without any concurrent or chronic injuries or illnesses, or recent surgeries.
All participant data will be held confidential and used for the improvement of quality of life for people with Cerebral Palsy.
If you are interested in participating please contact the student researchers, Malavika Suresh at malavika.suresh@uconn.edu or Shaniel Bowen at shaniel.bowen@uconn.edu or for more information.
